Supplementary Signs Sign code: T13

The sign indicates a yield to all traffic

When You See This Sign

When you see a T13 supplementary sign you should immediately identify which roads in the intersection have priority according to the diagram and adjust your speed. The sign is mounted together with a main sign (yield or stop), so follow the main sign and yield or stop if necessary before entering the intersection.

Rules & Regulations

  • T13 is a supplementary sign used together with a main sign (e.g., a yield or stop sign) to clarify how right of way is distributed at an intersection with multiple roads.
  • The diagram on the sign shows which roads or directions have priority and which must yield — you must follow this together with the main sign.
  • T13 does not change the priority by itself; the main sign determines whether you must yield or stop, T13 only clarifies how the intersection is laid out.
  • When T13 is posted you should adjust your speed, be prepared to yield or stop for traffic from the directions shown and not enter the intersection until it is clear.

Tips for Drivers

  • Slow down in good time and identify on the sign which roads or directions you must yield to before you approach the intersection.
  • Consider the perspective: the diagram should be read from your approach angle — compare the drawing with the real layout before you proceed.
  • Check for traffic from all marked directions, including small diagonal roads that can be hard to spot.
  • If you are unsure about the interpretation, wait until the situation is clear — the sign is meant to help but requires attention.

Common Mistakes

  • !Believing that T13 alone grants or removes the right of way without taking the main sign into account.
  • !Misreading the orientation and interpreting the diagram from the wrong direction instead of from your own approach.
  • !Treating the sign as a lane marking instead of a priority illustration and entering the intersection too early.

What does this sign mean at an intersection?

  • A It indicates that the intersection is a multi-road junction where several roads join.
  • B It means that you must stop at the intersection.
  • C It indicates that you must give way to traffic from the right.
  • D It shows that a motorway begins.

Exam Tip

On the theory test you may be shown a picture of T13 without the main sign — remember that T13 by itself does not impose a yield or stop obligation; priority must always be assessed based on the main sign or the general rules if no main sign is present.

Did You Know?

T13 is often used in rural intersections or complex multi-branch layouts to reduce misunderstandings about who has priority and was introduced to make difficult intersections clearer for road users.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does T13 change the priority in the intersection?

No. T13 is a supplementary sign that clarifies priority in combination with a main sign. The actual requirement to yield or stop comes from the main sign.

Does the diagram show my view or a map of the intersection?

The diagram shows the intersection layout from the driver's approach angle and which roads have priority. Always compare the sign's image with the real situation before entering the intersection.

Can T13 be used together with a stop sign?

Yes, T13 can be mounted below both yield and stop signs to explain where you must yield or stop. With a stop sign the requirement to come to a complete stop takes precedence, and then you interpret who has priority.

Does T13 apply to all lanes in the intersection?

T13 shows priority between roads and normally applies to drivers approaching from the direction the sign represents. If there are specific lane markings or local instructions in the intersection, those must be followed.
